If you have the passion to help kids who seem to have lost hope and seem to have no future in life, then you may want to start a small childrens ministry. In most cases, a child could be alone due to loss of both parents, due to divorce cases and domestic violence or due to the violent nature of both parents. Here are seven ideals that can help you start up and progress well.
The first thing you want to do is to soul search yourself to find out whether you really want to help. You need to take your time so that it will not be just a mere feeling but something touchy and true. You may want to ask for advice from different people and to pray to God about it as well.
Know the reasons why you have made up your decision on starting such a big mission. Talk to several people, who can help you evaluate your reasons to see if they are valid and valuable or just ordinary. Again, talk to your family members to see if they are for the idea or not and if they are in, they may be able to offer a helping hand in one way or another.
The question that you need to be asking yourself is the number of children you will be able to support. It is not always wise to pick a large number at once because you may strain ahead. The number of children you can support will be based on how much money you have placed aside for helping them. You can start with a small number and then raise that as you go along.
There is no way a ministry can survive without money. Well, finance seems to be the only answer to every question that human beings have, and in that case, you need to know your source of funds. You can ask for a helping hand from your local church, from the junior church staff meeting or seek for sponsorship. Make sure you have a great proposal in place so that your donor-funding search may become a success in the end.
What you intend to start should solely be for the purpose you have started it. Some charity organizations are reported vile, corrupt and greedy because they have turned their mission from helping children build their future to using them to earn money for their own satisfaction. If you are going to help, make sure you help and if you have some other plans, stop and look for something else that suits your desires.
Learn to see the future. While it is not going to be easy all through, you must learn how to give the best kind of services to the children in question. Because you are going to be doing it free, always get in touch with donors to help you support the children. Remind them not give up on the ministry you have started, at least for the sake of giving these hopeless young ones a hope for the future.
Before your childrens ministry can become legal, you will need to get an approval from the state government. The government needs to know the reason behind why you intend to start such a mission. Once they give you a go ahead, you can start your establishment.
